“General practice training is back with the RACGP, where it should always have been!”

These words came from Greg Hunt, the Federal Health Minister, during his keynote speech at the RACGP annual conference in Sydney in October 2017.

I was there and remember they sent shockwaves around the conference hall.

The plan was for the transition of the Australian General Practice Training Program (AGPT) to commence in January 2019, with the RACGP and ACRRM delivering training from January 2022.
